Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a spinosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a spinosaurus.
I tamed a lvl 300 with cooked meat,wheres my prize
While I was knocking this guy to tame him he suddenly ran away SO FREAKING FAST HE SHOVED HIS HEAD IN A CLIFF. Good thing he hit a cliff because if not, it would be day 1000 and me and my argy would still be chasing after him.
I got two Spinos and that too at level 28. You just have to find a space between two rocks where you can easily pass but Spinos could
It's harder than it sounds but it works for me.
Love&Power here… I got that spino.😎 she’s level 210, and an absolute beast. Early game made easy.
Okay so, I have a spino egg. I don’t know the BEST way to hatch it. Does anyone have any tips to help me out with?
If you are looking for a spino go look around the river(s) near the green platform
According to me, spino is better than rex, I am saying this because it is a beast in underwater and it is also a beast on land.
Um so the 5 people that upped the one about lvl 2 male spino,
I managed to tame him!KO in water, he didn’t drown, 71% taming each fish, it was worth it! Now I have my 3rd best carnivore! Very happy, I was TERRIFIED! :) go check me out on YT

:D pls sub, it would mean a lot!
BRING A LOAD OF NARCOTICS. I cannot stress this enough. Their torpor drain rate is high and will go down very fast. I tamed a level ten and he took 150+ narcotics honestly you can't bring enough narcotics. Take as many narcotics as possible. Bring bio toxin only if you have access to it. Narcotics work great though!
Just use a tapajara to cling to the surface of a cliff, and shot the spine at the bottom. Super easy and does not require a trap. Tamed a level 140 this way.
Build yourself a taming pin, 5×5 floor, either use stone dino gate or wooden ramps for entry and use stone door frame or pillar built 3-4x tall, to ensure you don't get attack. Meanwhile taming it with a bow/cross with tranq arrow use their preferred taming food and always have Narcs to feed it.
If you have a direbear with good health you can tank the hits while you shoot from its back and catch it when it runs away.
I tamed a Lv 80 spino with raw prime meat
I used 200+ narcotics and 40+ bio toxin
Go on a cliff have a simple rifle at hand shoot it with tranqs and have a fly boy so you can go down I used 15 prime meat I play Xbox so yeah great experience.
Genesis X-Spinos are worth the tame. They are like Bog Rexes that can swim. If you try to tame it, be careful to build a trap higher than normal Dino gates made of stone with a ramp on one side. This Dino needs Behemoth gates to fit through them, so anything smaller than that, but a bit larger than a Dino gate will do. Had one get stuck in my standard Dino gate trap, but it jumped out once it’s torpor got high and it found an area of gate that wasn’t perfectly level with the others and jumped right over and ran off. Taming with standard gates is possible, only if they are perfectly level with each other. Having a trap made of stone fence supports and door frames stacked super high will make escape impossible. Pillars work too, but make sure it can’t slip through them.
These things nocked me off a cliff more than 5 times and took over 30 trank arrows for a level 20
I just tamed it by going on a high cliff with my pteranadon then shooting it with my crossbow, then doing the usual meat and narcotics. However it was killed shortly after by a bronto. R.I.P Haddasah.
How To Trap Your Spino
a comprehensive guide on how to make a stupid lil cage for your megametrodon.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
16x stone foundation
48x stone doorway
12x wooden ramp
1x crossbow
30-70x tranq arrows (may take less or more depending on level)
now that youre all readied up, find your ideal spino!
i recommend searching in south zone 1, as it has a guaranteed spino spawn. they are also common in river deltas / streams near the beach. if you cant find any, kill some fish as they share a spawn.
now, how to build a trap.
step 1: place your stone foundations in a 4x4 on the ground
step 2: place your doorways in rows of 3 on each side of the trap (kinda like a carno trap).
step 3: place your wooden ramps in rows of 3 on whichever side you see fit.
now that your trap is set down, lure over your spino! preferably use a flyer, although you can also lure them over with your crossbow.
now that theyre in your trap, pump a truckload of tranqs into them until they fall asleep!
their torpor falls relatively quickly, so i suggest loading up on narcotics to feed them. the easiest and most efficient way to feed them is with raw prime fish meat, however if you have expectional kibble or raw mutton then those 2 work better.
I recommend using A long neck rifle to knock out these things. One bad thing about Spinos is they near fish💀 bro, these things are in love with fish,it is annoying that they always hunt them which makes it hard to tame. but all you really have to do is make a trap.or find high ground(that is high enough that the Spinosaurus can’t reach)or get A very fast mount that you can use weapons on and shoot the it down and put your food of Choice in it’s inventory. keep it asleep and boom there’s your spino
The Spino, while dealing a ton of damage, can retreat if it is low on hp, and is very, very fast on land. I only know this from mobile, but it could be true for pc. This also applies for when it is high on torpor, which makes it more difficult to tame, but it is in fact doable, so long as it collapses before it lands in an aggro area/ body of water.
